  • need info on katana font (and ideas).

    this is the style of sticker on my bike and on my other bike I want to paint it instead of using a sticker. anyone have any idea what font that is so I can print out a stencil? I did a google for fonts, and there is 300 thousand gazillion of them. out of the ones I browsed through, none appealed to me.
    So I am looking for this font, or maybe something even better. so even if you have no idea what this one is, but know of something else that might look sharp, feel free to post up an example.

    thanks

    Looks kinda like Brush Script MT but not quite. You could always make a stencil out of the jpeg you posted.

      I tried that, but it has to be 13-14 inches long. when I try to enlarge a pic that size, it is not very sharp. it can be done, but I would have to re-trace it. plus I am printing it on 11x17 paper, so just a straight font would be cool.

        Geez "MJ".

        It looks like a favorite of mine, but of course slightly altered.


        Font = Pristina (Bold, Italic)




        Have a look, bud.

              its a custom 'font' (or atleast a altered version of a font), note how all 3 a's are different

                If the sticker is on your bike can you possibly just trace it and then make the stencil?

                  You could always just tell someone that produces a kit what you're doing and that you need a painting template. For the most part, vinyl graphics are laser or plotter cut and then the part that you would actually want is pulled off the backing and thrown away (called weeding) you could ask them to cut you a sheet but send the whole sheet to you unweeded and just use what you need. Just an idea?

                    I agree with yellow2002Kat. Use tissue paper and trace it.
